"Foglie di Basilico is a fresh, green-spicy fragrance built around the vivid character of basil. Bergamot provides a bright citrus opening, while basil forms the transparent aromatic heart. Sage anchors the composition with a dry, herbal finish. Its style is direct and naturalistic rather than dense or heavily layered, evoking freshly cut garden herbs and a crisp Mediterranean atmosphere. The fragrance is an early Blu Mediterraneo creation from 1999 and is now regarded as a discontinued release. Its light construction makes it especially suited to warm-weather daytime wear, although its performance is generally considered brief."

Reviews Summary

“Foglie di Basilico is perceived as fresh, distinctive, and highly realistic, with a crisp herbal character likened to a wearable basil cocktail or a garden-fresh basil scent. Reviewers appreciate its transparent basil and sage structure, while commonly noting that it fades quickly and has limited longevity. Community ratings place its scent quality at 6.9/10, longevity at 6.2/10, and sillage at 5.8/10.”
